Although common in young children, it can happen to anyone at any age. Contact dermatitis: environmental factors cause this type of eczema, also known as allergic contact dermatitis. Dyshidrotic eczema: This kind of dermatitis can lead to blisters, rashes, and burning sensations on the skin. Neurodermatitis: Also known as discoid eczema, this type of eczema affects tiny skin areas. It gives them a scaly, itchy feeling. Nummular dermatitis: this type of eczema, causes small, spherical lesions all over the body, but particularly on the arms and legs.

The skin becomes dry and scaly as soon as the skin barrier is compromised, causing the skin to lose moisture. Environmental allergens, or stimulants from one's surroundings, penetrate the skin and trigger the immune system, resulting in irritation and red, itchy skin.
